Do you ever have those days where right when you wake up in the morning, you just get this certain fire inside you and think, ‘I am gonna own this day’ ? You know, like, this day is mine for the taking, and nothing and no one is going to do anything to mess it up. Now, I definitely try and wake up every day with a positive attitude, feeling good and being motivated. But on this particular day, I woke up feeling fierce. It was my day off, the sun was out, and I was ready to have a ‘Lael’ day, meaning that I would do only things that felt good to me, and really focusing on what makes me happy. Boom. Let’s do this.
To start this soul-satisfying day, I decided I really needed some good, solid, energy boosting coffee. Not just any ol’ cup o joe, but some crank-turning, day-changing, mood-lifting coffee. Have you heard of Bulletproof coffee? I don’t even know where I heard about it, but I LOVE this recipe. It is so easy, and honestly, whenever I drink it, I seriously feel like I strapped a rocket on my back. My energy goes through the roof. It powers me through the day so effortlessly, and makes me feel great. I don’t know how it does it, but it does. So, gather the ingredients. You will need:
*Fresh ground coffee
*Virgin Coconut Oil
*Butter {Grass fed, if you have it}
Brew your coffee as you normally would. Next, in a blender, or, I use a magic bullet, add a pat of butter and a teaspoon or so of coconut oil. The recipe calls for grass-fed butter, but I only have regular, so use whatchu got. 🙂 Pour your fresh brewed coffee into the blender, and then whirl it all together for about 5 seconds.
Then, pour this delightful concoction back into your favorite coffee mug, sip and enjoy.
You will be AMAZED at how delicious and creamy and frothy it is. Coconut oil is sososososo good for you and the butter keep
